What will happen if you try to compile and run the following code?
public class Q {
public static void main(String argv[]){
int anar[]=new int[]{1,2,3};
System.out.println(anar[1]);
}
}
1) 1
2) Error anar is referenced before it is initialized
3) 2
4) Error: size of array must be defined

simbagoo,
Welcome to Javaranch, a friendly place for Java greenhorns
You should try to compile this code and see what the result is. Then we can discuss if you still have problems with this code. Remember that practicing is very important for any Java programmer.
We ain't got many rules 'round these parts, but we do got one. Please change your displayed name to comply with the JavaRanch Naming Policy.
Thanks Pardner! Hope to see you 'round the Ranch!

array index in Java starts with 0 not 1, so anar[1] means the second element in the array

Well, I meant 2 is what gets printed out, so the correct answer is 3
